Green wonderment

I am on my second day of a green smoothie feast. My goals are; to lose weight ( the elusive size 8 ), clear any dis-ease from my body, be vibrantly healthy and balanced in everyway.

I tried to juicefeast, but I found that is was very expensive, I was always hungry, I had blood sugar issues ( even with just green juice ), and I was detoxing ( physically and emotionally) very fast and furious. I stopped because of all of these reasons.

I intuitively realized that a green smoothie feast would work great for me. I will be drinking about 3-4 quarts of GS a day ( just greens, fruit and some sprouted flax seed ) . I will also be adding all of the supplements from the juice feast to my diet ie; bee pollen, dulse or kelp, vitamineral green, ( MSM maybe ), spirulina and Colosan.

I have alot of energy on green smoothies and they really fill me up. My detox symptoms( physicaly and emotionally ) are less, much more manageable. I can also exerise without feeling lightheaded which is a plus.

I would love, love, love to do a 90 day green smoothie feast, but I'm taking it one day at a time. If I go out to eat with friends I will allow myself to eat anything that I would normally put in my GS. I decided that being the social outcast and having fear about going to dinner wasn't serving me. In the past I would decline invitations because I was so afraid of " falling off of the fast/feast/raw cleanse or whatever. Again, this time I want to become balanced in everyway, friends are a large part of my happiness and balance.

My boss is taking me out to lunch tomorrow so I'll have a salad with lemon or a fruit bowl.. see how easy that is, I love it!

Many Blessings,

SM
